The song 'Diamond ring' ia another part of the 'These days' album released in 1995.
Originally, it was written for the 'Slippery when wet' album in 1986. The band usually writes nearly 40 songs for a new album, so 'Diamond ring' just didn't make it. The same happend two years
later for 'New Jersey' and in 1992 for 'Keep the faith'. Finally, it ended on the 'These days' record. Previously, they reworked the song, especially the lyrics.
Lyrically, it's a typical Bon Jovi ballad with lines like: 'When you're cryin' I will be the tears for you, there's nothing that I wouldn't do for you'.
